If you've ever felt the urge to create a Finsta (fake Instagram), you're not the only one. The promise of being able to follow and not follow whoever you like, with no prying family members monitoring your every post, and a place to let your freak flag fly in peace is certainly alluring.

This urge extends to celebrities too. After all, they're the ones faced with constant scrutiny, paparazzi flashes and keyboard warriors who are all too keen to dissect their latest Instagram caption (just ask Hailey and Justin Bieber). It's no surprise they're craving refuge from the constant attention.

So, for a much-needed break, they adopt Instagram alter egos, pose as food reviewers, create accounts parodying themselves or simply open entirely private profiles to evade the general public.

Of course, with the collective investigative skills of the entire internet against them, most of these Finstas get unearthed (except for Meghan Markle's alleged Finsta, which remains a mystery).

Behold, the secret social media profiles of some of the world's biggest stars...

While not entirely secret, Hadid's Finsta is a place to house her passion for photography. Her account, @gisposable, is full of intimate snaps taken on a disposable camera, featuring photos of Hadid's closest friends and family, fashion industry legends like Lauren Hutton and Donatella Versace, backstage runway moments and holiday happy snaps.

Leave it to this hilarious Brit to create an Instagram account dedicated to sausages. Yes, her account @sophiessausagereviews (tagline: "Passionate Bout The Saus") is literally just reviews of sausages. Bless her.

Riverdale star Cole Sprouse and his twin brother Dylan have spent most of their lives in the spotlight, so they've grown accustomed to spotting sneaky fans trying to snap covert photos. Cole's account, @camera_duels, hilariously documents every time he's caught someone out trying to photograph him without permission.

Much like his ex-girlfriend, Gigi Hadid, Joe Jonas has a passion for film photography, which he showcases on his account, @cupofjoe. The content is a mix of travel photos, quirky cultural spectacles and, of course, loved-up snaps of his wife, Sophie Turner.

Princess Beatrice's undercover Instagram was accidentally unveiled by supermodel Karlie Kloss, who tagged the account, @beayork, in an Instagram story announcing her engagement. The account is private and has only 667 followers.
